Mt. Rushmore of Bizarre Children's TV Premises

from Mt. Rushmore Podcast

Sometimes, children's television can be a place of wonder, where kids learn valuable life lessons and are entertained by beloved characters. And sometimes, it's a place where monsters with TVs in their stomachs speak in gibberish and create countless nightmares for kids and parents alike. Let's face it – there's a lot of bizarre children's TV show concepts out there. Even great shows can have premises that are beyond belief. (Seriously, a group of teens and a talking dog travel in a van to solve crimes featuring villains with hyper-realistic masks? OK.) This week we get weird, so join us as we delve into the world of strange kids' TV show concepts and try to emerge with our sanity on the other side.
